Republican Support for Texas Governor's Standoff at Southern Border

Republicans across the country are rallying behind Texas Governor Greg Abbott's legal standoff with the federal government at the southern border. The Texas National Guard has been using concertina wire as a barrier between the Rio Grande and Shelby Park to prevent federal agents from accessing much of the park. Texas Governor Abbott has publicly challenged a US Supreme Court ruling, declaring Texas under invasion and invoking the state's constitutional right to defend itself. The legal dispute intensifies concerns about a constitutional crisis and highlights the ongoing disagreement between the state and the Biden administration over immigration policies.
